Chapter 99: Smart little girl
OK, let’s not take the example, if you have a lot of sympathy, then... Ye Chunqiu was stunned for a moment. Could it be that he had to cut off a little JJ? Then, it’s better not to send a random swear word.
He hated these people and was about to go home. After buying so many people at once, Tongjitang must be unable to bear it. He had to ask his uncle to find a way to borrow some money. Now the yamen owes 600 taels of money and 100 taels of charity money. People are afraid that there will be no more than three or four hundred taels of kilowattacks. Fortunately, Tongjitang has merged two shops worth 2,000 taels, so it will not be insolvent. In addition, Tongjitang is famous and holds a secret recipe, so he is not worried about credit issues.
Ye Chunqiu set off and walked to the end of the street. He heard a girl twisted her arm by a toothed woman. She cried loudly: "I don't want to go, don't go, which old man bought me? I don't go to the brothel. I can do laundry, cook, and go to the floor. I...I..."
Ye Chunqiu had seen too many such tragic events, and he felt so nervous that he suppressed his sympathy and continued to walk forward a few steps. He heard the girl say, "I can read, write... I can sew clothes..."
When Ye Chunqiu heard that he was reading and writing, he stopped and looked at the girl who was beaten by the tooth woman. Seeing that her body was dirty and her little body was still struggling, Ye Chunqiu hurriedly walked forward: "How much does this child cost?"
In this era, women have no talent, so although the literacy rate of men from poor origins is very low, most women in other families can be considered to be in the past ten thousand. Now, Tsing the miracle doctor joins Tongjitang, specializing in gynecology, so Ye Chunqiu plans to divide the clinic into two, one has a small front and the other has a smaller front and elegant decoration, so he comes to Tsing the miracle doctor to visit and receive female patients. When a woman is sick, it is an obscure thing, especially in this era, which is even more untold secret. You can talk about the miracle doctor alone but not, so there must be some girls who have started to fight. Ye Chunqiu has already thought about it. Tsing the miracle doctor is old, and she just stayed here because she was curious about Ye Chunqiu's medical books. She will leave sooner or later in two or three years. At this time, cultivating the successor of Tsing the miracle doctor has become the top priority.
Moreover, if Tongjitang opens a branch in the future, it is afraid that it will run a gynecology department. Even if the miracle doctor is not leaving, there will be a female doctor in the hospital.
Medical skills are not as good as farming or scheming. In addition to having wisdom and rich clinical experience, the requirements for reading and writing are also not low. Now this girl can read and write, and such a person can't find it even with a lantern. After all, educated women are either rich or noble. Just like a person like a miracle doctor, this Tan family is a well-known official family. If not, how could she read and write since childhood and learn medical skills?
The toothed woman saw Ye Chunqiu wearing a Lun scarf and having this sword on her waist, and she was still fierce to the girl. When she saw Ye Chunqiu, she looked flattering: "Young Master wants to buy this girl? Ah... fifty taels of silver."
It's a sky-high price.
An ordinary girl is only a dozen taels.
The toothed woman said, "This child is smarter and smarter than other children... Young Master..."
Ye Chunqiu frowned, a little unable to afford it.
Seeing this, the girl shouted, "No, no, I am not smart at all. I eat a lot, picky and picky, and I can't do anything. I'm ugly and stupid..."
The tooth woman was furious and raised her hand to hit her.
Ye Chunqiu smiled. He knew that the girl wanted to buy her, so he changed his words and belittled himself wildly.
Ye Chunqiu pretended to be careless and said lightly: "Oh, I am just a shallow girl who burns firewood. Since I am stupid, it's fine, fifty taels of silver...haha..." He smiled coldly and raised his legs to leave.
The tooth woman hurriedly caught up, squeezed out a smile, and said, "Twenty taels, only twenty taels are the price of acre of paddy fields. Young Master... Young Master..."
Ye Chunqiu stopped and said, "Fifteen taels, no matter how much you have, there will be nothing. I don't like bargaining. If you sell, sell it. If you don't sell it, I will find another family."
The tooth woman hesitated for a moment, glared at the girl with her eyes, and smiled and said, "I have always felt sorry for this kid. I always want to find a good family for her. The young master is not an ordinary person at first glance. Let her follow the young master, just like the old man. I think the young master will treat her kindly, okay, fifteen taels, fifteen taels..."
Ye Chunqiu brought some cash and was too lazy to send her to the clinic. This girl was very important. He was a little afraid that the tooth woman would regret it, so he took out the broken silver from the bag on his waist and weighed it. After getting the tooth woman's contract, he only had to pay for it.
The tooth woman left with great gratitude. Ye Chunqiu was too lazy to come to her. She went to see the girl again. She was about the same age as hers, and she was dirty and could not see her face clearly. However, her eyes looked very clever. She just depreciated her value and gave Ye Chunqiu a good impression of her. When the girl saw the tooth woman walking away, she wanted to pull Ye Chunqiu's sleeve, but found that she was dirty. She immediately moved her little hand away and said in tears: "Young master, young master, you are so kind, please save my sister and save my sister."
Well……
Ye Chunqiu was a little confused. What's wrong today? He always felt like he was set up by someone. This girl was first attracted attention and wanted to escape from the control of the tooth woman. Then she depreciated herself and bought her at a low price. Now she cried and asked herself to save her sister. Alas... people who have read books...
Ye Chunqiu sighed in his heart, when people read books, they become deeper, of course... except myself, I am a pure and kind little case, and Ye Chunqiu is the same.
"Who is your sister and why should I save it?"
The girl cried, "My sister and I are concubines in the family. The family was quite wealthy, but when my father died, my eldest mother sent me and my sister out. We were lonely and helpless and were abducted by the tooth woman. Yesterday, the cruel tooth woman sold her sister to Qinhuai Building. I... I am young, and people refuse to ask for it..."
What is Qinhuai Tower?
A trace of doubt flashed in Ye Chunqiu's eyes.
The little girl seemed to see through Ye Chunqiu's thoughts: "It's a brothel, the young master is kind-hearted, please save my sister. My sister is smart and can read and write. She is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. She..." She was half a head shorter than Ye Chunqiu, so she looked up at Ye Chunqiu pitifully, showing a heart-wrenching look.
Ye Chunqiu was only interested in reading and writing. As later generations said, there were not many good girls; for Ye Chunqiu now, there were not many girls who could read and write, and even bad ones were needed.
OK, he pondered for a moment and said, "I'm in Qinhuai Tower? I'm afraid I've picked up customers, so wait a moment, I'll ask someone to inquire first."
But the little girl couldn't help crying, and fell to the ground and kowtowed to Ye Chunqiu: "Young Master, time is not waiting for anyone. My sister has been sold for a day. If he hesitates... Woo... If the young master is willing to save me, I and my sister are willing to be a cow and a horse for the young master... Besides, the young master is a scholar and a person with fame... These things are just a small task for the young master."
